Joe Jackson//It's Different for Girls

WOW! THIS JUST IN: OSS IS A FINALIST FOR A BLOGGIE!!!
If you read and love it (or hell, if you even just like it), please take a second to vote now under the music category!
Also, worth noting that OSS wouldn't have even been nominated if not for these fine friends. Thanks, Emma!

Now, back to the business of songs:
I spent most of my day yesterday in Tiny Cup. Even though I was working, no complaints. I love Tiny Cup! Various friends stopped by! They played a series of awesome songs, including gems from Leonard Cohen, PJ Harvey and The Band.

This song, one that I’ve been thinking about here for a while, also got played.

I don’t know much about Joe Jackson, besides that he was a British new wave-ish artist. Wikipedia tells me he now lives in Berlin. My stepmom tells me that he came off as an asshole when she saw him on tour in the 80s. What I can tell you is that this song is awesome.

Don’t you know that it’s different for girls?
(Yes, yes I do.)
